[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
Problem solved. blkid and vol_id gave the same uuids, but there were some old entries in blkid cache which I removed with sudo blkid -g. Then I removed old menu.lst and forced update-grub to regenerate it - now there are correct uuids. update-grub normally didn't overwrite old menu.lst, I had to remove that file which all led to more confusion. -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
Ok, I'm going to mark this bug as Invalid since an entry in the blkid cache is not really udev's fault (since it uses vol_id anyway) We have a meta-bug anyway about the fact we have both blkid and vol_id, when we should have just one library; we're in discussions with both upstreams about finding an amicable solution to that. ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Invalid -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
I encountered this bug after upgrading from Ubuntu 8.04 to 8.10 (Alpha). There are different uuids in GRUB's menu.lst and reported by /dev/disk /by-uuid (and also fstab). I'm not sure what has changed? Maybe the way kernel generates uuids for disks is different than the one done by grub updating script.

[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
Interesting... this may be that a UUID has stayed in the blkid cache (in which case this is an e2fsprogs issue). After cloning the partition and changing the UUID, try running vol_id on the new partition - do you get the same UUID as blkid or a different one? Do you get the new UUID or the old one? -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
Hmmm simply changing the status to invalid just doesn't solve the issue. I outlined above how to reproduce this bug. Clone a partiton, give it a new label and UUID, and blkid yields nonsense. This did not go away. Ubuntu has moved to UUID-based mounting (which is a controversial issue in itself) , so the user tools to write an ubuntu-compliant fstab should work reliably. So even if a partition had a filesystem previously, there needs to be correct filesystem information given back to the user, may it be a udev- or a blkid-bug. -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Since the problem has gone away, no way to get more information from you. This is usually because the partition has had a filesystem previously, and both metadata are available ** Changed in: udev (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
It seems I solved the problem. I merged two partitions, properly installed Feisty Fawn and now ... I don't have my problem anymore. But I guess there is a rare problem of UUID attribution but I could not tell which one.

[Bug 110251] Re: Different UUID between udev and fstab
It seems I'm suffering from a different incarnation of the same bug: After cloning my Feisty (sdb1) install to another partition (sda7) on the same machine i ran reiserfstune -u `uuidgen` /dev/sda7 to give the clone a different UUID. This was successful When trying to edit the fstab of the clone to reflect this change i noticed that blkid neither gave the right label (now 'Gutsy' , nor the right UUID of sda7. An update-initramfs -u which i ran afterwards and rebooted didn't change anything. Note that in the attached screenshot gnome gets the new label and UUID right, why blkid puts out nonsense. ** Attachment added: UUID-contradictions http://launchpadlibrarian.net/8099501/Screenshot.jpg -- Different UUID between udev and fstab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/110251 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
